Make Some Pocket Extenders for Your Pants
So I don’t know about you, but I’m often frustrated by the ridiculous smallness of girls’ pockets. At a bare minimum, I need to be able to shove my cellphone in there - come on, pants companies! So what I started doing was making myself pocket extenders. I’ve done this several times, for pants and shorts. It’s great.
I just got this pair of jeans, so I thought I’d show you how to do it. I kind of feel like it just hasn’t occurred to some of you that this is an option, so maybe now it will. All you need is your pants, some fabric (I just took a random piece from a scrap bin), a needle, and some thread (thread doesn’t even need to match the fabric since literally no one will see it).
See? Ridiculous. Like, half a cellphone, or only 2.5″. Useless.
So turn those inside out to expose the pockets.
Figure out how big you want your pockets to actually be. I kinda go by whatever looks like might be right. I didn’t really measure them. Fold the fabric in half, so you have a pocket, and then fold it in half again so you can have two equal ones.
Try to get the edges to line up enough, pin it in place, then sew up the sides! Are your stitches crazy uneven and wonky looking? Doesn’t matter; nobody’s going to see it. These are in the inside of your pants. The only thing that matters is that it holds up. So I double-did the corners, since those tend to get the most stress.
Cut open the bottom of the existing pockets.
Pin it in place, then sew around, joining the new pocket to the old pocket. I did this by keeping my hand on the inside, so I wouldn’t accidentally sew through the other side. Again, I reinforced the corners, and didn’t worry about what it actually looks like. Then I turned it in side out to make sure the inside was all joined properly.
Yay all done! And the pockets are so much bigger now!
Whaaaat I can fit my entire phone and entire hand and probably something else now, are girls’ pockets even allowed to do that?! Heck yeah they are.
You are a goddamn hero.
$10/hr for skilled sewing is under market and undervalued, and .15/sq inch is also not market, BUT this at least give folks some idea of what artists put into a piece.
How Did This Get Made: Pillow Edition!
You take some squares of fabric, cut them up, then sew them back together in a different order and BOOM you got a pillow going 👍🏼
Check out these cuties! 🐳🐳🐳 #PreppyPod #PreppyTheWhale #Quilting
I’ve been thinking about this quilt all week

Omg need to see this quilt
Piper knows what’s up
yes, I’m helping
You are a life/fabric saver whiteantcrawls! Thank you for the heads-up about the layout issue, this totally wouldn't have fit the other way. It's also Kokka so it's even narrower than the traditional 45 inches

Piecing arrows for Pointy Quilt with pretty pretty Michael Miller solids! 🌈🌈
me talking about my etsy shop
Even though it's a huge bummer that the quilt shop right by my house is closing, I got over seven yards of cute print fabric (including a yard of Kokka! The top print)) and a set of Hiroshima pins for $52! Would have been well over $130 without the sale prices. Silver linings and whatnot.
My Pointy Quilt in the shop!
